"Noble Call" by Susan Pearl

If we would take the good that we know to be true,
And let this good show and shine through in what we say and do,
Then our point of view would be answering a noble call
   of having peace on earth and goodwill towards all.

"Four A's" by Susan Pearl

There are four words that begin with the letter "A" that I try to remember whenever hard changes come in life,
"Alignment" to the change-----not being misaligned helps with pain.
  This is a form of acceptance.
"Adjust" to the change--- in knowing we cannot change this different circumstance and setting.
This is a form of acceptance.
"Adapt" to the change----this helps with learning how to live with what we cannot change.
This is a form of acceptance.
And now the number four word that begins with an "A"------ACCEPTANCE----
Acceptance brings the peace that leads to healing.

"The Ride" by Susan Pearl

A friend told me-
That a friend had told her-
"Life is like a rodeo with each of us on a bull-
Take it one jump at a time-
       and hang on for the ride".

Yesterday was Valentines Day.
My husband and I have been married over fifty-two years.
For Valentines I wanted to tell him something special from my heart.
So last night as we told each other "goodnight"--I looked into his eyes and said-
"What a nice husband,
What a good man,
I love you,
I always have
  and I always will.
And for as blessed as I am
   I will be forever grateful.

Happy Valentines Day."

"Alignment and Balance" by Susan Pearl

It is best not to get ahead of ourselves-
Because when we are ahead of ourselves we are really out of alignment
   and possibly out of having good balance,
It is best to stay aligned and take one thing at a time.

"The Peace of Seeing Geese" by Susan Pearl

What is it about a honking flock of geese
   crossing the sky that catches my eye?
A huge flock of geese flew towards the north today,
Could this mean that spring is on the way?
Do the geese know more than me
  about when spring will be?
The geese carry me in thought for a moment or two
  as they are in flight,
And then I realize I was at the right place at the right time-
   because-
   they are already out of sight.
Leaving me with a pleasant peace
  and wonderment of seeing a huge flock of geese.

"Happiness Way" by Susan Pearl

You and I, we thought we knew the way-
But there were many ways for us to find-
Then we found this thing called "happiness",
    and it has become our "way" of life-
    staying with us ---every day
    as we continue on our way.
